Mayfair Witches - A Bit of Review During the Break

Mayfair Witches in 2 Weeks, AMC

While Super Bowl Sunday was in progress in New Orleans, AMC did not air a new episode of Mayfair Witches. Instead, we were able to watch the episodes already aired, in order.

We were also able to see featurettes that discussed some of the more interesting things about Season 2. Of course, I was quite fascinated by the featurette that discussed how the scenes that appeared to be playing out inside the dollhouse!

Mayfair Witches S02E05 - Julien's Victrola

Mayfair Witches S02 E05 AMC Networks

From IMDb: Rowan demands Julien's help in finding Lasher; Moira probes Cortland's mind for important memories.

Since it will be two weeks until Episode 6, I thought I'd get right to it.  Well, those things and no matter what anyone thinks of the show, I'm still going to talk about the model (let's call it that) of the Mayfair house in Julien's afterlife.  If you've seen my images and/or video of my 3D model of the Mayfair house of the novels, which is always very much a work-in-progress, you probably won't be surprised.

From IMDb: Rowan must find Lasher in order to right her wrongs, but even Sip doesn't know where Lasher is.

Mayfair Witches S02E03 - Cover the Mirrors

Mayfair Witches S02 E03 AMC Networks

From IMDb: Rowan desperately partners with Cortland to try to stop Lasher; Moira assists Sip in capturing him.

Whew!  Now that Alicia and Gifford have both died immediately after encountering Lasher in the flesh, and the Mayfair victims have increased in number, Rowan has realized the number will increase unless she stops Lasher.  While the first two episodes did indeed feel closer to the novels, the third episode takes us more into the onscreen version.  With a surprise or two.

Mayfair Witches S02E02 - Ten of Swords

Mayfair Witches S02 E02 AMC Networks

From IMDb: Rowan must find Lasher before more people are hurt; Sip finds an ally in an angry Mayfair cousin.

I watched the entire episode thinking the actress playing Gifford was one I recognized from...somewhere...but didn't realize it was Thora Birch until I went to look for some meaningful images from the episode.  Wow.  She made a good Gifford Mayfair!

Season 2 Premieres

From IMDb: Rowan Mayfair is determined to understand what Lasher has become; Sip is hell-bent on capturing him.

After a two-year wait, Season 2 of Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches premiered last night on AMC.  I only began to discuss my thoughts on episodes during Season 2 of Interview With the Vampire, but I thought I'd do the same here.  Especially since this site specifically discusses the Mayfair Witches.

New Orleans

A Moment For New Orleans

(Moved from GoDaddy)

Happy New Year!

Unfortunately, 2025 had a very tragic beginning in New Orleans.  

Fourteen people (fifteen if you include the driver) lost their lives in the early morning hours of January 1, 2025 when a pickup truck was driven into a crowd of people on Bourbon Street in New Orleans' French Quarter.  More than thirty people were injured, including police officers.

To the families and friends of the victims of this horrific attack, the survivors, their families and friends, and the city of New Orleans, know that the world grieves with you for the loved ones you lost, and is with you as you begin the process of healing while honoring those who you've lost.  

The Mayfair Witches Parlor is committed to doing anything it possibly can to help.  On the original Mayfair Witches Parlor, you will find a link to the fund set up through the Greater New Orleans Foundation to aid survivors and victims of this attack that was provided in yesterday's press conference update.  For those who might have any information that will aid the investigation into this attack, the Parlor has provided the contact telephone number and link for the FBI's tip lines.  The digital link is for those who might have any video made that could aid in the investigation.  

At the top of this main web page is a link to the Home page of the Original Parlor.  The information above can be found at the top of the Home page.  It is okay if you cannot afford to donate or do not have tips for the investigation.  You can still help by spreading the word   

Evil will not win.  New Orleans will.  This unique and special city has given us so much and shown so much hospitality to so many over its history.  Let's return kindness for kindness.
